Xie Lingqin kicked the stool, which hadn't even touched Yu Qingyi's bottom yet, and it immediately slid.
Xie Lingqin sat down calmly.
Caught off guard, Yu Qingyi had no choice but to sit down on the other side.
"Yu Qingyi!"
Just as Yu Qingyi sat down, before he could even demand an explanation from Xie Lingqin, a call came from upstairs.
Yu Qingyi felt like dying. No wonder, he had sensed something was wrong upstairs and instinctively pulled Xie Lingqin to leave.
Xie Lingqin had just put down her teacup and was about to shake off Yu Qingyi's hand when it suddenly dawned on her that it was Princess Qing. She immediately got up and was about to leave.
"Stop them! Stop them!"
At Princess Qing's command, the guards behind her immediately stopped them.
"Mother, don't blame him, that, that..." Yu Qingyi stammered, and then pushed Xie Lingqin toward Xuan Yuandu, "Take her away."
Of course, Xie Lingqin was not a woman without strength. Before she even touched Xuan Yuandu, she steadied herself and glared at Yu Qingyi with hatred, "This is all your doing."
"You...you...you catch him too." Princess Qing was clearly angry and quickly came downstairs.
Xie Lingqin immediately grabbed Zihe and Xuanyuan Du and ran outside the teahouse.
Of course, Yu Qingyi is at the back.
“Yu Qingyi is more than capable of dealing with Princess Qing, what are you afraid of?” After running for two streets, the group finally stopped, and Xuan Yuandu asked in confusion.
Xie Lingqin straightened her sleeves and a few strands of disheveled hair. "Haven't you heard?"
"Have you heard?"
"Stop pretending. Even if everyone knew about the affair between the Seventh Princess and the Minister's son, it was impossible for there not to be public opinion."
"Oh, I see." Xuan Yuan Du chuckled lightly. "You're the one Yu Qingyi insisted on marrying..." Xuan Yuan Du raised an eyebrow, a rare smile spreading across his eyes. "A man!?"
"Ha! Yes." Xie Lingqin smiled insincerely, looking behind her. "Let Yu Qingyi explain this himself. I'm the one who got dragged into this."
"I have other important matters to attend to. We'll meet again another day." Xuanyuan Du glanced around and prepared to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute, do you know about Yu Qingyi and Nie Zuier?"
Xuanyuan Dujian frowned. "This matter is not easy to explain."
"Okay, I won't pressure you."
"Farewell." Xuanyuan Du raised his hand in a gesture of respect, and in the next instant, he had vanished.
Xie Lingqin remained silent for a while before turning around and waving at the corner not far away, "Alright, come out now."
After a while, silently, a boy of about ten years old, dressed in plain clothes, with very bright eyes, came out.
Behind him followed the scholar Ning, who seemed rather dull and simple-minded.
"Ning Yi, it's alright." Ning Xiucai patted the boy's shoulder and stepped forward, looking embarrassed. "Well, I was just passing by and saw you, and then... I took your money. I've already reported to the shop. Yes, it's legitimate business, and I won't disgrace my reputation as a scholar."
Xie Lingqin looked him up and down and nodded. "Yes, that's good."
"Then, farewell." Ning Xiucai pulled Ning Yi and was about to turn around.
To everyone's surprise, the boy remained motionless, his eyes fixed on Xie Lingqin.
"Ning Yi, let's go, it's alright." Ning Xiucai reached out to pull him away.
Ning Yi remained unmoved, her bright eyes, sparkling like stars, still fixed on Xie Lingqin.
Embarrassed, Ning Xiucai pulled her again, "Let's go, young lady, you've met her before."
"Sister?" Ning Yi turned her head and looked at Ning Xiucai with curiosity.
Ning Xiucai nodded, "Yes,"
Didn't he recognize me last time?
"So, will Brother Ning be helping Sister with chores from now on?"
Ning Xiucai raised his sleeve to rub his forehead, nodded, and said with a hint of embarrassment, "Yes."
"Yes, sister is so nice." After Ning Yi finished speaking, she suddenly rushed forward and threw herself into Xie Lingqin's arms.
Xie Lingqin...
I'm completely bewildered right now.
Even with her usual calm and collected demeanor, she was somewhat taken aback when suddenly hugged by a child of about ten years old.
Moreover, the child wasn't very wary when they first met.
However, although the child was highly skilled in martial arts, he was mentally impaired. So, Xie Lingqin held back. After a moment, she raised her hand, frowned, and pulled Ning Yi away. "Kid, one hug is enough. If you hug me again, I'll get angry."
"Sister." Ning Yi didn't let go and continued to hug her.
They weren't this affectionate last time...
Therefore, after a moment, Xie Lingqin's gaze turned cold and indifferent as she swept towards Ning Xiucai not far away.
Ning Xiucai was almost thirty years old. He had a prominent brow bone and was an upright man. He clearly felt the coldness emanating from Xie Lingqin's eyes and body. He immediately waved his hand and tried his best to defend himself, "Miss...you...please don't misunderstand. I don't know what happened either. Ning Yi, come here."
"Sister." Seemingly sensing the sternness in Ning Xiucai's tone, the young man finally released his grip on Xie Lingqin's waist.
With her head tilted back, her exceptionally bright eyes shone brightly.
There's actually a kind of...
A deep affection for one's children.
Xie Lingqin...
There's a giant clam shell in this mansion, and now Ning Yi has arrived...
That's incredible.
Ning Yi was pulled away by Ning Xiucai.
Xie Lingqin wanted to touch her forehead, only to find that a few strands of hair had fallen down.
"Zihe, is my hair messy?" Xie Lingqin asked Zihe.
Zihe was still somewhat immersed in Ning Yi's embrace of Xie Lingqin when she came back to her senses. "Yes, Miss, a little."
Xie Lingqin then looked thoughtfully at the spot where Ning Yi and Ning Xiucai had left.
So, Ning Yi could tell she was a woman last time, but he didn't really see what she looked like in women's clothing. Right now, it was because of this loose strand of hair that she looked somewhat like a woman, so he went up and hugged her, calling her "sister."
elder sister?
"Zihe, do I look approachable, kind, and gentle?" Xie Lingqin asked, looking at Zihe.
